To attach a folder to an email you must first compress it. Hold down the Control key on your keyboard and click on the folder. In the drop down menu choose Compress “Your File Name”. A new icon will appear on your desktop, it will look like a piece of paper with a zipper and it will be named “Your File Name.zip”. This is a zipped file and the file you use as your email attachment. The receiver of your email will download this file, double click on it and your folder will load onto their computer. Please remember that you cannot attach anything larger that 10mb.
